Abstract: A control method for a work vehicle, includes: acquiring a signal for changing a state of a traveling device, to which power is transmitted via a transmission and a clutch, between forward, neutral, and reverse states; outputting a command for reducing a torque of an output shaft connected to the traveling device in a state where a first clutch is engaged, before a specified time elapses from a time point at which the signal for changing to the neutral state is acquired in a state where the first clutch is engaged; outputting a command for releasing the first clutch after the specified time elapses; and outputting a command for controlling the transmission so that a rotation speed of an input-side element of a second clutch to be engaged next coincides with that of an output-side element of the second clutch in a state where the first clutch is released.

Abstract: An inspecting step includes a first period after a cooling step ends and a second period after the first period ends. Variations in a voltage drop value per unit time in a nonaqueous electrolyte rechargeable battery are smaller in the second period than in the first period. The cooling step cools the battery in a state where the electrode body is directly or indirectly pressurized and restrained in a thickness direction with a smaller pressure than that in the inspecting step or in a state where the electrode body is not restrained. The voltage value of the battery is measured when a specified time has passed after the voltage value of the battery was measured in the second period. The battery is determined as being normal when the voltage drop value per unit time based on the measured voltage value is less than or equal to a threshold value.

Abstract: A manufacturing method for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery includes preparing a battery assembly, and performing an initial charging on the battery assembly. In the initial charging, a differential capacity curve of the battery assembly has a first peak voltage at which a first layer is formed on the electrode body and a second peak voltage at which a second layer is formed on the electrode body. The initial charging includes forming the first layer by stopping charging for a first stop time after charging to a first specified voltage that is set between the first peak voltage and the second peak voltage, and forming a second layer with charging performed to a second specified voltage that is set higher than the second peak voltage after forming the first layer.

Abstract: In a memory module including a plurality of DRAM chips which transmit/receive a system data signal with a predetermined data width and at a transfer rate and which transmit/receive an internal data signal having a larger data width and a lower transfer rate as compared with the system data signal, the transfer rate of the system data signal is restricted. Current consumption in DRAMs constituting the memory module is large, hindering speed increases. For this memory module, a plurality of DRAM chips are stacked on an IO chip. Each DRAM chip is connected to the IO chip by a through electrode, and includes a constitution for mutually converting the system data signal and the internal data signal in each DRAM chip by the IO chip. Therefore, wiring between the DRAM chips can be shortened, and DLL having a large current consumption may be disposed only on the IO chip.
